You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.

anyone who would pick Empire Records over Pee Wee's Big Adventure needs to seriously figure out what went wrong in their life

We get to masturbate in the park if they pick Fast Times, right?

I was REALLY hoping they were going to show "The Plight of the Hummus Platter" this year.
It's an amazing documentary about Mexican Chickpea farmers. A real classic.

Yeah "Audience Picks!" should not be italicized because "Rain Dates" is not.

I think Mamouns on St Marks Is better then Oasis on Bedford.

you, 8:21, are a fool.
Posted by Anonymous | May 2, 2012 9:25 PM
I share in 8:18's sentiment based on the following factoid...
Oasis's blend utilizes a lower quality corn oil as opposed to Mamouns virgin olive oil.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ at this movie selection. The "Audience Pick!" weekend is cool.
Here is what I would've programmed (all double-features):
7/11 - Taxi Driver / Summer Of Sam
7/18 - Times Square / Street Smart
7/25 - After Hours / Desperately Seeking Susan
8/1 - Bright Lights, Big City / American Psycho
8/8 - The Pope Of Greenwich Village / 9 1/2 Weeks
All these films take place in NYC.

8:05 Don't forget to add "...and bonus wine so that you look more like a fop than you already are".

seriously when are they going to open up a location of 'the hummus place' in northside. that place is fucking legit.
Posted by Anonymous | May 3, 2012 9:48 AM
^ the hummus place makes some great blends, but at $7.95 per order, the prices are pretty high.
